Hardly 36 kms from the important town of Rajasthan, Kota, stands the famous small little town of Bundi, famous forts lakes, forts and carvings. One of the most beautiful yet the most unexplored cities of Rajasthan, Bundi was once a capital of the Hada Chauhans.
Today only relics stand witness to this glorious past. Bundi famous for its intricate carvings and murals is surrounded by the Aravalli hills on three sides and a massive wall with four gateways keeps a guard on the fourth. Although a sleepy little town, it has many interesting places and tourists sights to be visited.
The Taragarh of the Star Fort and the Palace are two impressive structures of Bundi. The massive edifice built in the 14th century is made in white sandstone and gives a dazzling look to the surroundings. The palace within has some beautiful murals and is built in a typical Rajput architectural style. The Fort has a huge reservoir of water, which could be supplied to all. The chitrashala in the palace is the beautiful collection of murals and paintings, not to be missed.
